LPG equipment and accessories - Welded steel pressure vessels for LPG road tankers - Design and manufacture; German version EN 12493:2013

Summary

This European Standard specifies minimum requirements for materials, design, construction and workmanship procedures, and tests for welded LPG road tanker pressure vessels and their welded attachments manufactured from carbon, carbon/manganese and micro alloy steels. There is no upper size limit as this is determined by the gross vehicle weight limitation. This European Standard does not cover tanks for tank containers. NOTE 1 In the context of this European Standard the term ""road tanker"" is understood to mean ?fixed tanks? and ?demountable tanks? as defined in ADR. NOTE 2 The equipment of the pressure vessels and the inspection and testing after assembly is covered by EN 12252, and EN 14334, respectively. NOTE 3 The design type of the road tanker is subject to the approval by the competent authority, as required by ADR. WG1 to align fully with ADR for reference in ADR 2015.
